The best restaurants serving Other cuisines food in Middlesbrough North East

We had booked for Sunday lunch and received a phone call the evening before to inform us that they wouldn’t be serving Sunday lunch but that the rest of the menu would still be available. We decided to go ahead with our booking. We’ve visited many times before and always enjoyed it, but unfortunately, this time was quite disappointing. There were four of us, and we ordered a Swiss cheese burger, a New York burger, poached eggs and avocado on toast, and ravioli with a bacon and garlic sauce. To our surprise, the food seemed to have been brought in from somewhere down the street—though we’ve no idea where from. The chips were cold, the burgers were overcooked, the poached eggs were hard, and overall the food was lukewarm. The constant opening and closing of the door made the room uncomfortably cold. To add to this, the bill was brought to us without us asking, and no one checked in to see if the food was okay. A very disappointing experience this time around.

Terrible, never again. I ordered an eggs benadict, costing 8.50. I’m vegetarian and it wasn’t advertised as having meat (pork bacon) i wasn’t advised when purchasing and advised the young waitress that we wasn’t aware when the food arrived, she offered to remove the just the bacon and give us the remaining item, I advised no due to dietary requirements (halal). The waitress went back and spoke to the manager who advised her that I would need to purchase again if I wanted a new one without bacon. I turned it away and didn’t purchase a new one. I went back to speak to the manager. she was sorry and if she was our waitress then she wouldn’t have charged us. I saw the young waitress asking her at the time, however the manager apologised and offered to give us a new eggs Benedict, I advised no, as we’re finished and had to head home. She said next time we come she would give us one - free of charge. I advised I would not be returning. Absolute terrible service. Customer service was appalling. Please avoid. Overpriced food.

No large cups, no hot chocolate, no jam. 12 mins late opening. Poor showing considering it’s based in a hospital. Crap enough been here, never mind not having the basics.

Nice and clean. Helpful lady working the bar. Unfortunately another lady was sat at the end of the bar she had 2 dogs which sat and stood on the bar. The bar maid was feeding, cuddling them. Then serving customers without washing her hands. If they had been serving food I would have contact the council immediately. Won’t be returning

Was excited to see it re-open . Sadly it must be under new owner etc. All food is the poor quality cash and carry bought in stuff that every other take away has . All cook pretty well , chips arrived a bit soggy , all bread items a bit chewy buns and pizza base, ie not th freshest . Was cheap enough to compensate for new poor quality .

For a supermarket cafe. Morrisons is my favourite

After swearing not to eat here again I ended up doing so the other day as my university friends insisted the food was nice. I should have trusted my gut after the last time I was there and received a bland dry veggie burger with no salad or sauce. They ordered a full English and the bacon was undercooked, they said their sausages were poor quality and the ‘toast’ was basically warm bread. One friend ordered a cappuccino which was lumpy and undrinkable. I ordered a tuna panini which was actually a disgusting tuna baguette which the baguette was soggy and warm not even crispy and it was covered in a thick layer of cheap minging cheese. The only good side was my pint was a good pour. Safe to say I’m 100% not wasting my money they on food again and I doubt my friends will either

Was visiting Middlesbrough that day and waiting for a friend. decided to go to Milligans to buy a hot drink to pass time. I ordered a drink and the granny served me. I ask why was the price different and she said i was sitting in to drink. This was fine but she looked at other customers when she replied back thinking i am stupid or something. I find her customer service skills lacking even for an experienced old staff and would have been forgiving if she was a trainee. Before she bought the drink to the table she shouted who ordered 'hot tea', at the time there was only 3 customers sitting in the cafe which shows either she does not care or she is showing signs of senile forgetfulness. Anyway at the end of the day this would be the last time I would enter this rundown cafe and definitely would not accept this poor attitude towards customers. A mentally challenging staff that has passed her expiry date to work in the F&B industry.

Visited on Saturday 14th September and what a blast we all had. The bar staff had mint banter. Tony the DJ was fantastic from the minute we walked in until the minute we left. The bar lad I think his name was Tom recommended the black cherry kraken and wow what a drink. He recommended I also visit legends during the week so that’s on the to do list! Keep up the great work lads

The landlady and her partner thinks it's okay to go to other establishments and be rude to staff and leave dirty nappies on tables.

What can I actually say about this little cafe , well I would start with saying AVOID THIS PLACE. Me and my wife thought we would pop in one morning (11am time) to have a little something to eat, my wife ordered a poached egg with a side of mushrooms and some toast, my wife’s food came 1st and as she was tucking in she found a long hair in her mushrooms so I called the man over to show him, again her food came before mind only to sit there and see my breakfast getting put in the microwave to be heated back up then the fried bread I ordered been taken out the the deep fat fryer. When we both got our food it was swimming in grease which we soaked up with the napkins provide. The woman behind the counter was serving food and organising it on people’s plates with her bare hands after using a dish cloth to wipe down the sides, she also had no hair net or even bothered to tie her hair back she was the one putting people’s food on there plates and she was bending up and down for things wafting her hair around, she knew I wasn’t happy as she came over apologised for the hair and even said. “ I’m sorry about that I haven’t even had time to tie my hair back today” even tho they had already been open for Atleast 2-3 hours. After paying and leaving we went on our way, only for me to pass the cafe 2 hour’s later and get stuck at the lights that’s near the cafe to see this same woman with her hair back down (not tied back) so I knew what she told me was just a lie. Iv also passed a few days ago to see this same woman stood with her back towards the window to see yet again her hair was not tied up or no hair net etc. This place needs a deep clean and also I believe staff should be wearing the right appropriate wear for working with food.
